Note: All gates in the missions are unlocked.

Raw Materials (1 of 7)

Faction: Mercenaries
Damage Dealt: All kinds
Recommended Damage Dealing: Therm, Kin
Recommended ships:Nighmare

You get sent to a belt wheres theres 3x Merc miners ( Bestowers, i didnt bother shooting at these and they warp off after a minor so.), 2x Merc Lieutenant, 3x Merc Elite Fighter. Killing the ships will spawn the next wave:

Wave 2

2x Merc Lieutenant, 3x Elite Fighter

Wave 3

4x Merc Fighter

Wave 4

4x Merc Commander

Wave 5

4x Merc Commander

Wave 6

2x Merc Commander
4x Merc Fighter

Bring mining ship to mine the Green Arisite roid. Theres also 1995 units of normal Gneiss roids in the belt. take the 47 units of Green Arisite back to the agent.

Small facts

* The 3 Merc Miners will disappear after a certain time so if you want to kill them, target them first. They drop drugs when killed. Attacking the Miners spawns the 2nd wave of ships.

* I do not always get the 5th and 6th waves of ships. So far, I dunno why. Also, once when fighting the 6th wave of ships, they just up and left in mid-battle.

* There are also approx 16334 units of Omber to be mined in this part.

Mad Scientist (2 of 7)

Faction: Rogue Drones
Damage dealt: All kinds
Recommended Damage Dealing: EM.
Warp/Scramble: Strain Drones
Recommended ships:Nighmare

Pocket 1

All will spawns allmost immidiatelly after you warp in. There are many Raider alvi and Sunder alvi, their orbit is 2-4km. There are only few drone cruisers, so it is not heavy pocket. Shoot the 2 bunkers to stop more respawning

An Alvus Mother drone might spawn.

Pocket 2

(you warp in in 35-45km from all, which aggro immidiately):
Tower sentry drone 4x
Drone Stasis tower 2x
And, 2x Drone Neutralizer tower!!!
Also few frigs.

Destroy "Proffesser Delainen lab" ( more drones spwn). The prof is in the can dropped by the lab.

If you kill drones lookout and bunker first, there's no spawn when you shoot/destroy the Proffesser Delainen lab. When you start killing the professor's lab without killing bunker/lookout first, there are 4 strain infester alvis among the spawn, which warpscramble.

The Drone Bunker drops some loot.

Toward a Solution (3 of 7)

Mission type: Courer

The unveiling (4 of 7)

Faction: Rogue Drones
Damage dealt: All kinds
Recommended Damage Dealing: EM.
Recommended: Nightmare, Drake

Kill the mother drone and get the Elite Drone AI from the can its drops and take to your agent.

Arrive at belt 1 Large Drone and an alost never ending respawns of small/med drones.
When you warp in(nearly 30km from enemies) there are:
3x Drone Light missile battery
1x Mother drone which drops mission loot.

Allmost 35-40 ships will spawn after you kill BS.

If you shoot the Drone Bunker right away, you get lots of drone spawns in short succession (new spawn every 3-5seconds). In total there were about 30-45 drones and I had to warp out once at the beginning

Zaknussem adds: When I did this mission, I saved the Mother Drone for last. Killing it spawned 9 drones over by the Drone Bunkers. I guess that if you kill the Mother Drone first, all the drones in the mission will be spawned.

An unexpected Twist (5 of 7)

Faction: Rogue Drones
Damage dealt: All kinds
Recommended Damage Dealing: EM.
Extras: Heavy energy neuts.
Web/scramble: Strain drones
Recommended ships: Nightmare, Nighthawk

Warning: The combination of neutralizers and web/scramblers is a deadly combination.

The Large mother Drone drops the can you need with the " Hive Mind CPU".

You warp in in 55-60km from(insta aggro):
2x Stasis Tower (out of range)
3x Drone Light missile batteries
4 or 5 Energy neutralizers Tower, which will hit you even 110 km.

Primary should be the energy neutralizers.

After 1-2 minutes nearly 25 drones(frigates, cruisers, battlecruisers) will spawn, but they will fly to you very slowly.
After few minutes Battleship will spawn, The Large Mother Drone. It has high damage, even on 50km, so be careful.

Newcomers for this mission should kill the strain drones after the neutralizers, and then the Violator Drones as they do the most damage. Take one down at a time, as every one triggers a spawn of their own.

Another tip is to go passive tanking and leave the towers alone, as they spawn a cloud of angry drones.
